Elena Aguilar's Onward is a book for cultivating emotional resilience. During the 12 Days of Christmas, we'll explore the twelve chapters she includes. In the new year, we'll yoga with these ideas!
1st Day - Know Yourself: Purposefulness
“Self-knowledge is foundational for any superhero . . . Wonder Woman knows who she is. She knows what she values, and she acts in alignment with those values. Authentic confidence comes from self-knowledge.” (Onward, p.42)
“Self-knowledge is a precursor to knowing your purpose--how can you be clear on what you’re here to do if you don’t know who you are?” (Onward, p.43)
Our challenge is to integrate our superhero selves into daily life, without disguise, accessing our true power.
